The thick fog beside the giant circular pit had just dissipated when there was another earth-shattering explosion.
Smoke filled the air above the entire base. Many of the Russian scientists were affected by the explosion and were lying on the ground, wailing.
Vladimir used all his strength, but he couldn't break free from Peter and the driver's iron-like arms.
"Let go of me! Why are you pulling me?! Hurry up and go down to help! Our comrade fell into the huge pit, and his fate is unknown. You still have the nerve to hold my hand?! "Vladimir roared. The veins on his forehead were about to pop out of his skin.
Peter's blue-gray eyes, which had been drooping all this time, widened. He said, "Boss, you trust me. I'll go down and help you find Major Lina."
Vladimir nodded first, then quickly shook his head and said in a rough voice, "You can't go! Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?! No way! Lina is mine! Mine! "
He was still in the mood to be jealous at a time like this!
Peter smiled bitterly and nodded. "Yes, Lina doesn't have any feelings for me. I know, so can I go down and save her? You're in charge up there. The scientists over there seem to be injured … "
Only then did Vladimir turn to look at his own base.
The equipment was scattered all over the ground. Almost all of them had been blown to pieces, and tiny nuts were scattered among the rocks.
Everyone was lying on the ground crying. The grass was stained with blood. Some were holding their legs, some were hugging their arms, and some had blood dripping from their faces.
Vladimir came back to his senses and stood up from the ground. He turned around and looked at the Huaxia Imperial base. It was also a mess.
However, the equipment on their side had been packed up early and had just been moved away from the edge of the giant circular pit, so there wasn't much damage. However, the number of people injured seemed to be about the same.
A few Huaxia scientists were crying in their arms. No one knew where they were injured.
Vladimir closed his eyes and thought quickly in his mind.
What was going on?
Could it be another "test" from the headquarters?!
It was too much like those people's handiwork.
Crazy, stubborn, and unscrupulous. In order to achieve their goals, they would do anything.
No one knew how they transported the explosives here and buried them at the edge of the circular pit.
He could even determine the model of the explosive. It should be the KAM-137 series that was specially used by the KGB for targeted killing …
Vladimir got up from the ground with a dark face and said to Peter, "Take some people down and get Lina up."
Then he said to the driver, "You wait here and provide them with the necessary assistance. Give me whatever you want. If anyone dares to refuse, kill him! "
Vladimir's eyes were red, completely disregarding any discipline or rules.
At this time, as long as he could save Lina, he would even consider killing everyone here.
The middle-aged driver saluted. "As you command, Lieutenant General Vladimir."
It was rare for the driver to be so serious. Vladimir patted him on the shoulder. "I'll leave it to you."
He then walked towards the Russian scientists who were supposed to be under his protection. He brought the military doctor to check on their injuries, bandage them, and guard them.
After confirming that the Russian scientists were not dead or seriously injured, Vladimir didn't care anymore. He ordered one of his subordinates to watch the scientists. He returned to the edge of the giant pit and looked nervously at the rescue at the bottom of the pit with the middle-aged driver.
..
Gu Nianzhi covered Song Jinning's body with her own. She was afraid that the explosives would explode on Song Jinning.
When the explosion sounded, Huo Shaoheng was packing up the equipment with a group of entourage.
When he heard the loud noise, he instinctively turned around and looked at the spot where Song Jinning and Gu Nianzhi had been standing.
He saw the two of them lying on the ground. Before he could rush over, the security personnel he had arranged had already surrounded the Huaxia Imperial scientists. They used their bodies to create a wall and shield of flesh and blood.
Gu Nianzhi helped Song Jinning up slowly and looked at the crowd surrounding them in panic.
A field agent said calmly, "Don't be afraid. We'll protect you."
Gu Nianzhi nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you. Where's Major General Huo? "
At a time like this, she still had to see Huo Shaoheng to feel at ease.
The field agent didn't answer Gu Nianzhi's question directly. He only said, "Our duty is to protect your safety. Don't worry. If anyone wants to harm you, they'll have to step over our corpses! "
Gu Nianzhi tried her best to suppress the excitement and nervousness in her heart and nodded. "Thank you."
..
Huo Shaoheng tore off the disguise on his face in the chaotic crowd and returned to his original appearance.
He strode to where Gu Nianzhi and Song Jinning were standing and said to the field agents surrounding them, "Thank you. You've done a good job. Now go and see if there are any explosives that haven't been detonated, and call the doctors over to check if the scientists are injured."
The explosion just now had been too sudden, and it was shockingly powerful. It wasn't something that the toy-like "electric sparks" from last time could compare to.
To put it bluntly, the last time was a child's scare game, but this time, it was a real battlefield of flesh and blood.
These field agents received new orders and missions and began to investigate and explore their own base.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at Gu Nianzhi and patted her on the shoulder. He didn't say anything else, then looked at Song Jinning. "… Are you okay?"
Song Jinning was used to all of this.
When she had been doing experiments with her father, Song Haichuan, she had encountered this kind of thing more often, so she had long been used to it.
She stroked her hair and shook her head. "I'm fine. I'm going to check my equipment. As long as the equipment is intact, I'm fine. "She left Gu Nianzhi and took the two researchers to check the equipment and the data on it.
Gu Nianzhi looked at Song Jinning's back with emotion and said in a low voice, "Ms. Song is really a scientist worthy of everyone's respect."
She was a genius scientist who had truly put life and death aside and devoted herself to scientific research.
Huo Shaoheng nodded and smiled. "… That's why I'm very proud of my mother."
He had understood his mother since he was a teenager, so when his mother was busy with experiments and neglected his birthday, he wasn't unhappy, nor did he make a fuss.
He just took the birthday cake and took the bus to Song Jinning's laboratory alone to eat a piece of cake with his mother..
Growing up like this, he didn't blame anyone, nor did he develop an antisocial personality because of his unfortunate childhood.
Gu Nianzhi was deeply attracted to him because of this.
She didn't remember anything before she was 12 years old, but she knew that there was a period of time in her memory that was completely dark.
In the seven years that Gu Nianzhi had grown up, Huo Shaoheng had been like sunlight, shining into her dark life.
She had grown up in the darkness, but Huo Shaoheng had nurtured her into the light.
Gu Nianzhi gently held Huo Shaoheng's hand and looked at him fondly. She whispered, "I'm also very proud of Ms. Song, but I'm even more proud of you."
Huo Shaoheng looked at her with a smile and leaned down to whisper in her ear, "… What a coincidence, I wanted to say the same thing. I'm even more proud of you. "
Gu Nianzhi's heart suddenly shrank. His deep and magnetic voice had the magic of a subwoofer, drilling directly into her heart from her ears.
She blushed and her heart raced, unable to control herself.
However, in public, where an explosion had just occurred, she couldn't show any excessive behavior. She could only hold Huo Shaoheng's hand tightly.
Wherever Huo Shaoheng went, she followed him like an accessory on his leg.
Huo Shaoheng was also worried about Gu Nianzhi, so he let her follow him.
The two of them walked around the Huaxia Empire's base and confirmed that all the scientists and entourage were alive. Some were injured, but no one was seriously injured or dead.
Huo Shaoheng breathed a sigh of relief. He ordered his men to be more vigilant as he walked towards the Russian scientists' base.
The situation there was much worse than theirs.
First of all, there were destroyed instruments everywhere, and parts were rolling all over the ground. Gu Nianzhi accidentally stepped on metal pieces several times and almost sprained her ankle.
In the end, Huo Shaoheng had no choice but to hold her waist to prevent her from falling.
The Russian scientists' injuries were also more serious than the Huaxia Empire's.
Several of them had their arms hanging, and they seemed to have broken bones.
However, there were no deaths or serious injuries.
Huo Shaoheng looked around but didn't see Vladimir. He found someone and asked, "Where's Lieutenant General Vladimir?"
A KGB agent pointed to the edge of the giant circular pit. "Over there …"
Huo Shaoheng took a look and froze. "What are they doing?"
"… Comrade Major Lina fell into the pit in order to save Lieutenant General Vladimir …" the KGB agent muttered, his eyes turning red.
Gu Nianzhi didn't understand Russian, so she looked at Huo Shaoheng inquiringly.
Huo Shaoheng frowned and led her to Vladimir's side as he said, "… Major Lina fell into that giant circular pit in order to save Vladimir."
Gu Nianzhi let out a loud "Ah!" and was shocked and angry. "How could this be?! Are they still testing her?! "
Gu Nianzhi knew that the last "electric spark" was because the KGB headquarters wanted to test Major Lina's loyalty. In the end, it backfired and almost injured Gu Nianzhi and Song Jinning.
Huo Shaoheng's expression darkened.
When they arrived at the edge of the giant circular pit, Vladimir lay on the ground in a daze. He held his binoculars and looked into the bottomless pit.
Gu Nianzhi saw that the middle-aged driver was also helping, so she quickly walked over and said, "Uncle Ivan, did Major Lina really fall in?!"
The middle-aged driver nodded painfully. "Of course it's true. I saw it with my own eyes. The explosion was right at the boss's feet. Lina pushed the boss away, slipped, and fell in. "
